Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 3 cups low sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 12 ounces linguine or fettuccine pasta
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (or 1 teaspoon dried)
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large pot or skillet over medium low heat. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute stirring constantly.
- Add chicken broth, milk and cream. Bring to low boil. Add pasta and gently boil until tender; 15-20 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in the Parmesan Cheese until melted.
- Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.
Notes
- You can use several different pasta shapes in this recipe such as linguine, fettuccine, small shells, penne, elbow, radiatore or cavatelli. The cooking time might vary by a few minutes so keep checking to see when the pasta is tender.
- Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese in this recipe. The flavor is worth every penny and it melts perfectly unlike the stuff in the canister.
- If the pasta becomes too thick just add a little chicken broth, milk and cream in the same proportions as the recipe. It is hard to mess this one up.
- Cook the pasta over a very low boil stirring frequently. Try to keep the pasta under the liquid adding more chicken broth, milk and cream in same recipe proportions if necessary.
- Both rotisserie cooked chicken and skillet sauteed lemon shrimp are delicious when added to the pasta upon completion.
